Arnold Schwarzenegger is a legend, whether it be bodybuilding or as an actor. He has won a record seven Mr Olympia titles and has entertained the audience with his movies for several years. Schwarzenegger has excelled in politics also.

Even at 75 years of age, Arnold still does workouts in the gym, which suits his body and age. On January 8, 2023, Arnold Schwarzenegger posted a reel on Instagram along with a caption. He spoke about working out.

"Training is part of my life. It's automatic, like breathing. It's a routine. I love waking up every day to messages from all of you about how your routines in the Pump Daily Challenge are bringing you closer to your visions."

Arnold Schwarzenegger spoke further in the reel posted. He said he will continue to work out till the very end of his life.

"Training is part of my life. It's that simple. Nothing will ever change until I die. I will be working out and I will be having a great time in the gym and I will be getting the pump and I want to feel good. You know, and like I said, it's tough enough already as it is. When you get older, but you have to hold on as much as you can."

Arnold Schwarzenegger continued:

"And still today I come in here, I do sets. I do that because I'm 75 years old. I got to go and stay in shape. I'm doing TV shows, TV series, and I'm doing more movies. I want to be in shape and I want you to know it's already tough enough as it is to stay in shape. So you gotta do it no matter what."
